Question

Find the slope of the line graphed in the diagram and choose the correct answer from the choices below. The two intercepts are (0, 2) and (.8, 0)

a) 2/5

b) 5/2

c) -2/5

d) -5/2

Answer 1

We can use the points (0, 2) and (0.8, 0) to solve.

Slope formula: y2-y1/x2-x1

= 0-2/0.8-0

= -2/0.8

= -2.5

= -5/2

Hope This helped! Good Luck!
